TRAVERSE Software
For almost forty years, Open Systems, Inc. has been creating economical and modular solutions for Business Accounting and Enterprise Resource Planning. They have created TRAVERSE to give businesses the perspective needed to make intelligent decisions and drive revenue. TRAVERSE can be implemented easily because it integrates with most existing databases and offers the option of either web-based on on-premise deployment.
Streamline operations, reduce costs, and integrate data with TRAVERSE’s extensive suite of applications. Robust applications for Core Accounting (including support for multiple currencies and languages), Project Accounting, Fixed Asset Accounting, and Payroll are all available standalone. Available within suite are comprehensive applications for Fund Accounting, Inventory Management, Billing and Invoicing, Work Order Management, Budgeting and Forecasting, Financial Reporting, and Purchasing. Compatible with most mobile and web devices, TRAVERSE offers a real-time connection to orders, expenses, and warehouses.
What we like about TRAVERSE is the high level of customization availble within the software. Users can create unique fields, forms and functions. User permissions and audit trails can be tailored to each individual user. Even the screen layouts can be adjusted. In every sense, TRAVERSE adapts to the unique needs of a business, as opposed to users having to adapt to the software.
We recommend TRAVERSE for mid-sized companies in various industry verticals: Accounting, CPA, Distribution, Food and Beverage, Healthcare, Social Services, and more. TRAVERSE can help companies transform raw data into functional information to guide intelligent business decisions.

Pros
Less expensive then other options, but still not cheap.
Has bare minimum functinoality and includes financials

Barely functional
Outdated user interface

I humbly think that all nameplate data should be searchable.
Also assignable "id's" to trend and track a motor through it's life span.
Recommendations
It can suit a wide range of applications and industries.

Many ways to do searches, if you are looking for an item that you sold in the past, you can look for it by item #, description, etc
Likes Least
Many operations rely on human to complete, batches should change auto once one area has been completed
Recommendations
keep programs as simple as possible, example Batches, stay to a minimum for each area

The user can customize lot of reports, set his favorite views and has tons of features. If the user knows Excel, this program is very friendly and can be learned really fast.

Sometimes, is difficult to find a specific way to search something beacuse there are several path to reach the same result. If the user labetl those search like favorites, is less the effort needed to find something.
Recommendations
You have to choose the modules needed wisely and also the customizations. This program is a very powerful tool either for the administrative and sales force of a company.

Intro to Traverse
Likes Best
The product seemed easy to use and gave a lot of reports at your fingertips. It also appeared to have some good customization features within the design studio.
Likes Least
The Traverse 11 webinar seemed to be geared more towards current users of Traverse and not to "possible" new users. Not enough information was provided in a short demo.
Recommendations
Take a full introductory course, not just a version update.
